The thought of going back into the room, with that…thingthat was and was not the man he loved, terrified Sasha. He knew he had to though, no way around it. If there were consequences waiting for him on the other side of that door because he had refused Nathan then so be it. He had a job to do.


Turning the knob, Sasha threw the door open in a single go, peering out of the bathroom to see if Nathan was waiting for him. “Nate…?” Sasha called, inching his way into the bedroom. There was no sign of Nathan, though the main door was still closed. The window was open, but it had been open before, Sasha was fairly certain.


He moved across the room slowly. Maybe Nathan was taunting him. Maybe he had locked Sasha in the room.


That thought had Sasha dashing over to the main door and throwing it open. It wasn’t locked. He even peered out into the hallway, but discovered it empty. Shutting the door again, he turned back to the room. Maybe Nathan had decided to leave him alone.
